What Boston Residents Ask About Human Waste Cleanup

Is commercial feces cleanup different from home cleanup?

The safety steps are the same, but commercial jobs may involve shared restrooms, customers and business hours. Crews work to close off the area, clean it and keep documentation for managers and insurers.

Is there a chemical that dissolves human feces?

Not one that is safe to pour on a floor or carpet. Dissolving waste spreads it deeper into materials. The right method is to lift the waste, remove soaked porous items and disinfect the surface.

How do you clean up human feces outside?

Wear gloves, lift the waste with a disposable tool and bag it. Hose down only hard surfaces away from drains, wells and play areas. For large amounts, near a home or on a worksite, a cleanup team can remove and disinfect.

Is human feces a biohazard?

Yes. Human feces can carry bacteria and viruses such as E. coli, hepatitis A and norovirus. In large amounts, or when it soaks into building materials, it is cleaned with protective gear and disinfected like any other biohazard.

How long is human feces dangerous?

There is no safe rule for how long. Germs in waste can remain on surfaces and in dust after the waste has dried. That is why aged waste is still cleaned and disinfected with protection.

What rules do human waste cleaners follow?

Crews follow rules designed to protect workers from bloodborne pathogens, including the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, when blood or other body fluids are present. Rental housing and sanitation rules vary by city and county.
